Great ambience, OK food. Pizzas are good. Great, light, open dining area. Green chili chicken was grossly stringy.

Nice wait staff. Don't go to Zax if you're in a hurry. Nice menu selection.

All around great place!. I haven't read all the reviews, but based on the 5 stars it looks like everyone got it right!

The ambiance here is perfect, very "Austin." This is a family restaurant that is what family restaurants should be! The food is delicious, the staff is friendly. You have to go during nice weather and sit outside. The drinks are priced well for the area, and they have great specials. We have a pretty big Pint Night glass selection at home now. Parking isn't the best, but hey - it's downtown! At least they have a parking lot ;-) Sometimes the staff is a little slow, but they are always friendly and always get it right. Great date place or great place for drinks with friends. My husband looves their draft beer choices.

Great Food and Friendly Service.... My husband and I went in after I had been there for a work happy hour. The food was tastey, making us want to go back to try other items on the menu. The first time we went we got burgers and they were yumy. The second time, pizza and the pork quesadilla. Last time our I had the pork loin and it is a MUST TRY! The food is prepared well and the taste is amazing. The service is always good. Give it a try and you'll go back for more.

Delicious! Great Lunch. I LOVE Zax Pints & Plates. I've arranged a business lunch there, I've brought friends from out of town in and I meet my girlfriends there for lunch. If you work downtown or Westlake Area or South Austin, it's easy to get to. They have a great outdoor patio that is relaxing. The restaurant is beautiful and simple with clean lines, wood and bright colors. The food is YUM. Their steak salad is my favorite because it's healthy and delicious. The steak is moist and flavorful. I highly recommend it for business or for fun or a little of both. Although I don't drink, they have a nice selection of beer for those who indulge!

Good Food, Great atmoshpere. This place I think is more for the location and atmosphere then a great dining experience although I would reccomend it for a social get together since the atmosphere is great. The food and drinks are above average and I would rate those good just not great.

Check it out. Lots of variety.

Great find, good value during happy hour.. This place was great. The atmosphere is lovely. I enjoyed the sweet mashed potatoes. The filet kabob was extremely tender. We loved it so much we returned for happy hour a week later. The goat cheese, chicken and caramelized onion pizza was delicious. I can't wait to go back. The happy hour is a real bargain and the normal entree prices are around 14-20.

Must try the crabcakes!. Zax has the best crabcakes I've ever tasted. Their house salad is also fantastic. I hardly ever try anything else on the menu because the crabcakes are what I go for. The service is good, and I've never had to wait more than a few minutes for a table.

perfect summer patio. exceptional food, fresh and clean tasting water, friendly hostess and waitstaff.

as i was leaving work today i remembered there was an interesting looking restaurant i had been wanting to try...with no particular cravings in mind it couldn't have been a more perfect day to try Zax's Pints and Plates. I was pleasantly surprised to find such modern furniture and love the layout of the interior restaurant...the bar is so inviting looking!

I chose to sit outdoors on the cobblestoned patio and immediately fell in love with the place. The black bean burger was perfect, with just the right ratio of bean patty and jack cheese...the bun was soft and NOT soggy and the pico de gallo finishing it off. Their french fries are out of this world...better than my words can express.

My waitress was new, and a little unsure of herself...both her and the hostess were very willing to answer (or find answers to) my questions on holding personal events at their location.
